Joanne Webb

Hello, having many years experience working in mental health I support people with depression, anxiety, addiction, abuse, loss amongst many other issues. Providing a safe place to explore worries and concerns in a confidential, welcoming setting where you can feel at ease to share and make sense of whatever is holding you back.  Each person's journey differs so I aim to explore it with you, adapting my skills to fit your needs. I believe each of us holds the ability to enhance our lives, sometimes we just need a little help along the way.

My professional background consists of counselling in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre, voluntary counselling in a women's refuge plus Bolton Beacon Counselling Service, using play therapy within schools and in addition to my private practice I currently share responsibility for the mental health wellbeing of staff and students in a busy college.

Taking that first step to meet a counsellor requires courage; I understand this and aim to make it as easy as possible.

I would like to invite you to contact me for an informal chat where you can decide if I'm the right fit for you. Counselling is a personal, collaborative experience so it is important to feel comfortable with your chosen therapist. If your situation does not fit into the categories listed above, please do not let that deter you. My door is always open and I look forward to working with you.  

A lovely room right in the heart of Ramsbottom.
